So, Internet.. 1 inspiration please

**Robbo** · 04-22-2013, 05:03 PM

I'm a lazy dude and i have a copy of FFIX but my save file was wiped, I need people to get me to be able to be re-inspired to play any Final fantasy. I keep getting distracted by League Of Legends.

I was listening to the FFIX soundtrack last night, and my roommate almost quit playing FFVIII in order to start IX again. I had to talk him out of it twice, since he was having a tough time trying to convince himself to finish VIII when there was so much awesome coming out of my computer.

Does that count?

LISTEN TO THE SOUNDTRACK
IT WILL COMMAND YOU

I dunno if it will work on games too well, but when I rewatch movies for the umpteenth time, I try focusing on interesting backgrounds and secondary characters doing stuff until I get to the parts I really enjoy. FF IX has a lot of stuff that you could see like that I'm sure. Though maybe you shouldn't force yourself either. You'll enjoy it more when you truly want to play it, though the OST idea is good too.

I would suggest playing it giving yourself challenges like doing low level runs in certain places, and you should explore areas of the game you normally don't visit, play the heck out of the chocobo hot and cold. I would also experiment with your characters by using different abilities to defeat monsters.

If none of those help you can always play chrono cross. (Oh wait, that's something different)

How far into ff9 were you?

**LocoColt04** · 04-22-2013, 08:34 PM

This is a completely legitimate question. Potentially relevant to your ability to return to the game!

I also go the soundtrack route for finding inspiration to play most games. However, in this case, I would keep listening to the soundtrack over playing the game because one of my FFIX discs is inexplicably damaged. My FFVIII discs were intentionally damaged---they were my beverage coasters in college.

But... Secret Library Daguerreo. Mmmmm. That's about all I can add to that.

FFIX = THE Final Fantasy.

I mean the Vice Pres said it was the the like the Final Fantasy.

**Robbo** · 04-23-2013, 04:34 PM

Wow surprised by all of the old friends that posted on this thread, don't know if any of you remember me but glad to see you're all still around, Loco i will listen to the soundtrack

Also i was up to the part when Kuja takes you hostage and asks you to go somewhere and do something (my memory is vague) as far as i can remember i was on the 3rd disk.

I would wait a while before coming back to it, that way you leave yourself some time to forget the story (somewhat) before you come back to it. In the meantime, i suggest uninstalling LoL and start playing Dota. I have heaps of dota 2 keys to hand out and I'm a generous person, especially to strangers on the internet.

**Robbo** · 04-23-2013, 06:55 PM

Think I'd need to be good at Lol before moving to Dota other than that i don't know too much about it and do they even have EU servers?

We scored an Australian server (I think its in sydney) about 5 or 6 months ago. There is a small tutorial you can play to get you use to the mechanics of it and then you can just verse bots on your own until you are comfortable playing online. LoL will not help you to become a good dota player. Playing dota will help you become a better dota player. I've played both, and while I'll admit im slightly biased toward dota, I believe it to be the more balanced of the two.

**loaf** · 04-24-2013, 08:07 AM

Playing this game will make you better because I said so.

play either or they have tutorials that help you learn how to play. Which ever one you learn better is the one you should play.

I have this issue with many games because of League of Legends. I recently bought Dragon Age: Origins, Fable, Dead Island, and Dead Island Riptide. I want to play all these games, but keep getting caught in LoL's web. Also don't play Dota.

**loaf** · 04-24-2013, 09:05 AM

I used to be stuck on dota, HoN and League but I got stuck on other games. Dota, HoN and League I play 1 or 2 games and log off usually.

Mainly that pokeMMO and I've been wanting to play a new RPG.

**Rocky** · 04-24-2013, 12:09 PM

i need to start that pokemmo up, too long of queue times in league

**SuperSabin** · 04-30-2013, 12:47 PM

I am terrible at pokemon games. In an mmo world I would be that guy that only has a few low level pokemon and I wouldn't know what to do with them.

**Odin1199** · 05-08-2013, 02:44 PM

Wait, there's a PC version of FFIX out there? Or you guys meant on emulators?

Nobody talked about an FFIX PC Version. They were playing the Soundtrack from their computer.

I listen to the all the Piano Collections all the time.

So do I. In fact, I own 7 - 12 piano collections. They are wonderful.

**Odin1199** · 05-08-2013, 03:33 PM

Oh, my bad. Reading about good FFIX is made me a selective reader. I've heard from people that 9 is one of the best FF's. Now I remembered this and want to play it.
